Lol, most people I know who have machines.....they still make the trip to starbucks. Its just a ritual they enjoy doing, going to the coffee shop.

When you factor in the cost of good beans, milk, upkeep, electricity.......the fact that you will still likely go to the coffee shop sometimes.....I don't really believe these machines are at all about saving money.....
